    Dead Parents Club

    Losing a parent changes you. It’s weird, it’s heavy, it’s lonely. Dead Parents Club is a grief circle for anyone navigating life after the loss of a parent (or parents). This is a space where the whole of you and your grief are welcome, however it shows up. We begin with a short grounding to connect with your body and breath, and then the circle is open.

    Support for our Grieving Community – Guided Discussion & Educational Workshop

    South Park Yoga & Wellness 2985 Beech St., San Diego, CA, United States

These everyday griefs are often unspoken, yet they shape how we navigate life and care for one another.
